Photoshop Tutorial for Straightening Photo

Some of picture area will became filled with background color. This is happen even if the photo has been cropped. Just like in this tutorial illustration image, there are still a few background colors in some places. This is happen because the cropped area is larger than the photo.

If those background need to be remove, we can use Clone Stamp tool to do it.

Select the Clone Stamp tool. Adjust its nib size, just like when we adjust brush tool size. Then, Alt+click on a good image spot. This spot will be use as image source. After that, click on the image that still filled with background color. Be careful to select the image source, make sure those spots are similar with target area.

Here is the result of this tutorial; the monument in this photo has been vertically and horizontally straightened.
